This book was released on 2022-03-01 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Best Books of the Month: Wall Street Journal, Kirkus Reviews From the Pulitzer Prize–winning author of The Gulf, a sweeping cultural and natural history of the bald eagle in America. The bald eagle is regal but fearless, a bird you’re not inclined to argue with. For centuries, Americans have celebrated it as “majestic” and “noble,” yet savaged the living bird behind their national symbol as a malicious predator of livestock and, falsely, a snatcher of babies. Taking us from before the nation’s founding through inconceivable resurgences of this enduring all-American species, Jack E. Davis contrasts the age when native peoples lived beside it peacefully with that when others, whether through hunting bounties or DDT pesticides, twice pushed Haliaeetus leucocephalus to the brink of extinction. Filled with spectacular stories of Founding Fathers, rapacious hunters, heroic bird rescuers, and the lives of bald eagles themselves—monogamous creatures, considered among the animal world’s finest parents—The Bald Eagle is a much-awaited cultural and natural history that demonstrates how this bird’s wondrous journey may provide inspiration today, as we grapple with environmental peril on a larger scale.

Download or read book Return of the Eagle written by Greg Breining and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2008-02-26 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of how a nation reversed a “silent spring” and saved the bald eagle from extinction. This bird of prey was declared the national symbol in 1782 but, by the 1960s, pollution and development had wiped out all but a few dozen. Grassroots movements started, the American consciousness was raised to all environmental threats, and federal laws were passed to keep the eagle population alive. This stunning book of full-color photographs and touching stories chronicles this inspiring success story with awe-inspiring shots of eagles in flight. There is also a one-of-a-kind directory to more than 150 areas in the nation where eagles are likely to be seen in the wild, soaring once again against the blue skies of freedom. This book is a monument to the efforts that combined animal instinct for survival with the power of the human spirit to change the world.

On the trip there, pilot Kate Meltz flies the amphibian to a commune at the other end of the lake.

Through a series of surprise events, a cast of characters begins to come together—a “gathering of peoples” that, unbeknownst to some, have entered into a potentially dangerous and life-threatening situation dealing with the items mentioned above. One of these characters, Darren Brown, a Colorado native with a wife and three children, begins to feel disenfranchised, unsettled, and concerned about the world around him. As he sets off to find some personal answers, he is shortly swept into something that he knows nothing about, changing his and his family’s lives forever. Another character, Misty Butler, an elderly Native American widow, arrives on the scene and she too, after experiencing some powerful and emotional spiritual visions, is wrapped up into the plot. From the first chapter to the last, the plot twists and turns, leaving the reader in suspense over what will happen next.
